Book Synopsis The French Revolutionary Tradition in Russian and Soviet Politics, Political Thought, and Culture by : Jay Bergman
Book excerpt: The Bolsheviks sought legitimacy and inspiration in historic revolutionary traditions, and Jay Bergman argues that they saw the revolutions in France in 1789, 1830, 1848, and 1871 as supplying practically everything Marxism lacked, including guidance in constructing socialism and communism, and useful fodder for political and personal polemics.
